An extension to the College built 1950- 12 1954 is also part of the monument. 2 History of building 2.1 Original brief/purpose: college and residential school: further training for unionists 13 2.2 Dates: commission/completion: The Trade Union school of the ADGB in Bernau near Berlin was 14 a work of the German Labour movement of the Weimar Republic, financed by the contribution of 4½ million union members. The objective of the institution was to enable volunteers from the trade union movement to enjoy further education in subjects such as trade union studies, management, econonomics or labour law. During the one month schooling, the student would be given physical training in natural enviroment to induce him to raise his standard of living and culture. The design actually executed was the result of a keenly contested competition in 1928 in which six of the foremost german architects were invited to take part (including Erich Mendelsohn and Max Taut). The prize and the assignment to build the school went to Hannes Meyer and Hans Wittwer because they not only designed a striking set of buildings but also put forward a new form of socio-educational organization of the school. Construction period / date: March/April 1928: competition July 1928: laying of the foundation stone August 1928: start of construction May 1930: inauguration 2.3 Architectural and other designers: Responsible for the planning and the final design of the ADGB 15 school were the swiss architects Hannes Meyer (1889-1954), successor of Walter Gropius at the Bauhaus in Dessau and its director in the years 1928-1930, and Hans Wittwer (1894-1952), leader of the architecture department at the Bauhaus Dessau between 1927 and 1929. 2.4 Others associated with building: Arieh Sharon, Hermann Bunzel and Konrad Püschel, students at 16 the Bauhaus Dessau, made their first experiences in the architectural profession on the building site of the ADGB school. 2.5 Significant alterations with dates: The Trade Union college of ADGB did exist for only 3 years 17 until the trade unions were banned by the Nazis in 1933. During the Nazi period 1933-1945 the site became a school for high-ranking SS officers. Astonishingly the school complex was untroubled by rebuilding, except for a baffle paint. After the war the Soviet occupation authorities handed the college over to East German trade union federation (FDGB). The new owner extended the site, which was given the status of a Trade Union Academy. In the early 1950’s the planning by architect Georg Waterstradt with new buildings let the school of the 1920’s untouched. Waterstradt added a building of almost the same size which stood parallel to the existing one and was modelled after its architecture. In 1952 the politics changed in the GDR, following soviet directives, as well the official position about urban development and architecture. The official enacted architecture, better known as “Bauen in nationaler Tradition” defamed bauhaus architecture. In case of the ADGB-college a complete deformation of the entrance situation took place, eleminating the original architecture by Meyer and Wittwer. Later on followed further annex buildings, neglecting the cultural and architectonical relevance of the ADGB-college. 2.6 Current use: After closing the FDGB Trade Union Academy in 1990 the college complex was 18 vacant for many years. In 2001 the province Brandenburg, owner of the college complex, and the Handwerkskammer Berlin (chamber of crafts of Berlin) concluded a contract to use the former ADGB college as an institution of education and technology with residential school. The opening d o c o _ m o m o _ International working party for ISC/R members update 2003 documentation and conservation of buildings, sites and neighbourhoods of the for office use only modern movement will be in autumn of 2007. 2.7 Current condition: The ADGB college has been renovated completely between 2001 and 2007 by 19 Winfried Brenne architects, Berlin. 3 Description 3.1 General description: The ADGB-college was built 25 miles outside of Berlin in the State Forest of 20 Bernau amidst a delightful pine forest with a lake. The college was designed to accommodate 120 students. Meyer and Wittwer designed a set of buildings putting forward a new form of socio- educational organization, affected by Pestalozzi’s theorie of the small circle from which larger communities would emerge. For studying this, the houses of the students are the most significant examples. The 120 students were organized in 12 cells of 10 cells each. Two students roomed together and five of these groups of two formed a cell (community of the floor) whose members lived together separate from the others. They ate together in the dining room, studied together in the lecture room and formed a section for physical training. Finally all cells could be assembled together with the teaching staff in the big auditorium hall, the dining room or stadium. The buildings were intended to reproduce these socio-educational functions in terms of brick and mortar by the configuration the buildings. The school (with seminaries, classrooms, a reading room and a gymnasium), the separate houses for the students and the teaching staff, the main wing with common rooms (auditorium, refectory, kitchen).The blocks are layed out along a main line of the gently undulating land, connected by a glass corridor going from the main wing near the approaching road to the school building at the furthest point of the property. The landscape is utterly unspoiled, with the exception of a sports complex. The beautiful view from the common rooms and the living rooms is a document for the architects’ intentions to forge close links between buildings and landscape. Also the architectural conversion and the design of the buildings and rooms follow purely functional thoughts. All buildings (except the education building with the class rooms) have flat roofs, and have been carried out in yellow brick. Furthermore steel windows, prism glasses for windows, walls and ceilings and uncovered components of the construction (reinforced concrete) characterize the design of the facades and the rooms inside. 3.2 Construction: Reinforced concrete slabs and columns in conjunction with masonry linings of the 21 side and gable walls. Ceilings of the Kleine’s system with standard blocks and steel reinforcement Intermediate floors were insulated with layer of xylolith, sound-absorbing powdered peat and a covering of linoleum; Roof constructed like intermediate floors, then Torfisotherm slabs, 1:5 concrete and layer of Ruberoid roofing 3.3 Context: No specifications 22 4 Evaluation Technical: The use of modern construction systems and building materials was a central principle in Meyer’s philosophy of architecture. Meyer used the potentials of new constructions and materials (steel, concrete, glass), to full capacity, as well for the design of the buildings. Meyer’s view to comprehend architecture as an economical and technical process, to “organise living”, always was affected the search for reasonable, persuasive and economocally justifiable 4.1 answers relating to construction, technique and design of a building. In Meyer’s entry to the 23 competition the students houses should be erected with an ultra-modern skeleton frame structure with slight ceilings of the “Feifel” system. This modular technique, similar to a construction kit, was not accepted by the building owner ADGB. Meyer and Wittwer had to fall back on a construction system for walls and ceilings (reinforced concrete) in combination with conventional masonry linings; a construction, which in d o c o _ m o m o _ International working party for ISC/R members update 2003 documentation and conservation of buildings, sites and neighbourhoods of the for office use only modern movement 1930 was already proved and tested for years. Social: In the 1920’s the ADGB ascended to the biggest organisation for unionised employees with political virility in Germany. The self-image of the trade unions aimed for a strong workers’ representation in the young german democracy. The activities of the trade unions followed the image „industrial democracy” with educational work as an important factor in the strategy. Beside the increasing sociopolitical power, grew the economical potenz of the ADGB. This allowed to 4.2 24 intensify the educational work and to build up institutions working in the field of education. The educational duty proclaimed by the ADGB intended to build 2 colleges in Germany for the training of the members of trade unionists, one in the western part and the other one in the eastern part of Germany.

He incorporated key concepts from biology, psychology, and sociology, and invited specialists from a wide variety of fields. The Bauhaus under Meyer was committed to what is considered a “scientific world- view,” and this study focuses on how Meyer incorporated this into his theory of architectural education. This study reveals the following points. First, Meyer and his students used sociology to design analytic architectural diagrams and spatial standardizations. Second, they used psy- chology to design spaces that enabled people to recognize a symbolized community, to grasp a social organization, and to help them relax their mind. Third, Meyer and his students used hu- man biology to decide which direction buildings should face and how large or small that rooms and windows should be. Finally, Meyer’s unified scientific worldview shared a similar theoreti- cal structure to the “unity of science” movement, established by the founding members of the Vienna Circle, at a conceptual level.

Marking the centenary of the press conference 4 Sep, 11 am Bauhaus, the Bauhaus-Archiv / Museum für Gestaltung presents opening 5 Sep, 7 pm the exhibition original bauhaus at the Berlinische Galerie featuring more than 1,000 famous, familiar and forgotten Bauhaus originals and recounting the history behind the objects. original bauhaus showcases works of art and design from the holdings of the Bauhaus-Archiv, exceptional loans from international collections and artistic positions which take a new look at the Bauhaus legacy. On the basis of 14 key objects, the exhibition presents 14 case histories: How did the woman sitting on the tubular steel chair become the most famous anonymous figure of the Bauhaus? Does the Haus Am Horn in Weimar have a secret twin? Why have Marianne Brandt’s tea infusers which were created as prototypes for industrial production always remained one-of-a-kind pieces? original bauhaus sheds light on how unique works and series, remakes and originals are inseparably linked in the history of the Bauhaus. The fact is that Bauhaus artists did not see art and technology as opposed to one another. Instead, they used technical innovations to create exceptional works of art, and they took serial production into account from the moment they began drafting their designs. Today we look back at almost 100 years of responses to the Bauhaus, compared to only 14 years of Bauhaus production.

  • Opens in a Cascade of Trapezoidal Shapes, Like Shards of Glass
    World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism Prize 2008 award to Brenne Gesellschaft von Architekten mbH For the restoration of the ADGB Trade Union School (1928–1930) Bernau, Germany designed by Hannes Meyer and Hans Wittwer 1 2 This restoration highlights and emphasizes a particular approach to historic preservation that is perhaps the most sensible and intellectually satisfying today. Brenne Gesellschaft von Architekten is probably Germany’s most engaged and thoughtful restorer of classic Modern architecture. —Dietrich NeumaNN, JUROR Pre-restoration During the period in which the ADGB building was under East German control, it was impossible to find appropriate glass for repairs, so the light-filled glass corridor was obscured by a wooden parapet. Brenne Gesellschaft von Architekten restored the original materials and reintroduced the original bright red color of the steel framing. 3 Many of the building’s steel casement windows are highly articulated. The glass in the external staircase opens in a cascade of trapezoidal shapes, like shards of glass. 4 Despite Modernism’s influential place in our architectural heritage, many significant Modern buildings are endangered because of neglect, perceived obsolescence, inappropriate renovation, or even the imminent danger of demolition. In response to these threats, in 2006, the World Monuments Fund launched its Modernism at Risk Initiative with generous support from founding sponsor Knoll, Inc. The World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism Prize was established as part of this initiative to demonstrate that Modern buildings can remain sustainable structures with vital futures. The Prize, which will be awarded biennially, recognizes innovative architectural and design solutions that preserve or enhance Modern landmarks and advances recognition of the special challenges of conserving Modern architecture.

    The Trinity College Dublin Art Collections Artist: Max Bill Title: Max Bill 1966 Medium: limited edition poster b.1908, Winterthur, Switzerland d. 1994, Zurich Born in Switzerland, Max Bill was an architect, sculptor, painter, industrial designer, graphic designer and writer. He attended silversmithing classes in Zurich from 1924 to 1927. Then, inspired by the works of Le Corbusier and by a competition entry for the Palace of the League of Nations, Geneva, by Hannes Meyer and Hans Wittwer, Bill decided to become an architect and enrolled in the Bauhaus, Dessau, in 1927. He studied there for two years as a pupil of Josef Albers, László Moholy-Nagy, Paul Klee and Vasily Kandinsky, mainly in the field of ‘free art’. In 1929 he returned to Zurich, and after working on graphic designs for a few modern buildings being constructed, he built his first work, his own house and studio (1932–3) in Zurich-Höngg. Bill considered himself an architect but is mainly known nowadays for his design and art, particularly his influence on 20th century Graphic Art. As a theorist and a painter he was an important exponent of Concrete Art, an art based on rational principles with reference to mathematics. From 1937 onwards he was a prime mover behind the Allianz group of Swiss artists and in 1944, he became a professor at the school of arts in Zurich. Several years later Bill became a founding member of the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Ulm, Germany (HfG Ulm), a design school in the tradition of the Bauhaus. While teaching at the school, Bill produced one of his most famous designs - the "Ulmer Hocker" of 1954, a stool that could also be used as a shelf element or a side table.
